C Tape Alert listing
Tape Alerts are a T10-standardized method of providing critical, warning, or information alerts
that occur during operation of tape drives and media. Tape Alerts can help provide further insight
into any issues encountered while using the ESL G3 tape library, and can be seen in both library
RAS events as well as drive tickets. The below listing provides further information regarding the
Tape Alerts that can be issued by HP LTO Ultrium drives.
